Answer: y=-(1/8)x+(21/2)
Explanation:
The new equation’s slope needs to be perpendicular to y=8x-1
To get the new slope, we take the negative reciprocal of the slope from above
8 —> -1/8
Now we have y=-(1/8)x+b but it needs to pass through (4,10), so we need to find the value of b that makes this possible.
Since (4,10) is in the form of (x,y) we can plug in these values into the new equation to solve for b:
y=-(1/8)x+b
10=-(1/8)4+b
10=(-1/2)+b
b=(21/2)
Now put b back into the new equation
y=-(1/8)x+b
y=-(1/8)x+(21/2)
A = oz of the solution A
b = oz of the solution B
The scientist knows that solution A is 45% salt and solution B is 95% salt. She wants to obtain 80 ounces of a mixture that is 65% salt.
a + b = 80
0.45a + 0.95b = 0.65*80
by solving the above system of equations you'll find····
a = 48 oz
b = 32 oz

If it doesn't make since, I can try to switch up the wording ^^
Answer: 2.7
Step-by-Step Explanation:
You would subtract the the amount painted from 500.
500-193=307
They have to paint 307 more.
